Copper stress by nutritional immunity activates the CusS-CusR two-component system that contributes to Vibrio alginolyticus anti-host response but affects virulence-related properties
2022-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Copper is indispensable for cellular functions, but high levels of copper will destruct biological macromolecules. Copper accumulation was recently found to appear where the bacterial infection took place. This proved that copper resistance is necessary for bacteria virulence. Almost all bacteria, from isolated environmental bacteria to human pathogenic bacteria, have copper tolerance mechanisms. We found Vibrio a...
